Knights of the Round Table Drinking Game

The Knights of the Round drinking game is a great game for larger crowds like at a party. Either way you’re going to want to make sure you have lots of cups and types of alcohol to play this game at it’s fullest. The idea is cups, shot glasses, bottles, whatever are filled with any type of alcohol you could imagine and placed in a rind around a table. Then players draw cards from a deck and move that many spaces clockwise and drink whichever drink is now in front of them.

What You’ll Need

A deck of cards complete with jokers, a ton of different alcohols and styles of cups.

Setting It Up

To set this game all of the cups need to have some drink in them. The amount of cups you want in the game is up to you but the more the better. Usually enough to make a ring around a circular table is the best idea. So fill the drinks up, place them all around the edges of the table, then shuffle the deck of cards and put it face down in the middle.
